Galatians 5:1 Stand Firm in Freedom

Galatians 5:7-12 Obstacles to Freedom

What beautiful freedom and relationship there is in walking with Jesus! It stands unique from every religion and moralistic code of living. Maybe you are asking what it looks like to walk with Him or why those who follow Him sometimes lose sight of the freedom and joy Jesus offers. In this message, Rich answers these questions for us from Galatians 5:7-12. May God root out obstacles in our thinking that keep us from walking in the truth of the gospel. Let’s listen in.

Galatians 5:5-6 Faith Working Through Love

Galatians 5:5-6 says 5 For through the Spirit we eagerly await by faith the righteousness for which we hope. 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. What is this hope we eagerly await? Does performance lose all its value in Christ? And how does faith express itself through love? Let’s listen as Pastor Rich answers these questions in today’s message.

Galatians 5:2-4 The Advantage of Christ

Galatians 5:1 Stand Firm in Freedom

Galatians 5:1 tells us that it is for freedom Christ has set us free. Paul continues with a warning, “stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by the yoke of slavery.” We are no longer slaves burdened under obligation to a code, but sons and daughters, walking with our perfect hero, our Father, in a loving apprenticeship to become like Him. What a beautiful picture! Listen with us as Pastor Rich unpacks Galatians 5:1. This message titled Stand Firm in Freedom was first preached on July 13, 2025 at Grace Bible Church in Winston Salem. It is from our Galatians series titled Our Freedom in Christ. Look out for the next message Mondays here at www.delightingrace.com

Galatians 4:21-31 Born According to the Spirit

God is doing great things in the heart of a Christian faithfully submitted to the Savior. Phil. 2:13 tells us that it is God who works in us, both to will and to work for his good pleasure. As followers of Jesus, our fruit-filled life comes as the upshot of walking with and treasuring God. In Galatians 4:21-31, Paul continues to draw a clear line between religion that simply follows rules and a flourishing life in Christ. Just like the Galatians, our default setting today is to base God’s acceptance and our spiritual status on our performance. How then do we flourish in Christ? Does God not give believers clear instruction to obey and follow? What does it look like to walk with God instead of just following rules? Let’s listen to this message from Galatians 4:21-31
